  "account": "ChatGPT Atlas is set to be discontinued on August 9, 2026, leaving users with a series of tasks to complete before the shutdown. The browser-based features and agent-powered workflows will be integrated into ChatGPT and Codex, but users will need to manually transfer bookmarks and manage their open tabs and browsing history. OpenAI provides export options for cookies, but active sessions cannot be transferred. Users should be aware that the transition period is around 30 days and that Atlas will no longer receive security maintenance. Although Atlas is being broken down into various components across OpenAI's products, users should still prioritize completing the outlined tasks to ensure a smooth migration.",
